COVER FEATURE__________________________________________________________________
A ssalaamualaikum
I trust this reaches our readers in good health and
spirit insha Allah
Once again, all praises are due to the
Almighty who has bestowed us with
numerous bounties, comforts and resources to
be where we are today. Alhamdulillah.
This month welcomed the new brand
ambassador for covered magazine and I, along
with several other very inspiring women signed
up for this task.
I had the privilege of getting to know these
dynamic ladies before we went head to head the
next day. What started off as a contest turned out
to be a something I didn't expect and that was
pure admiration for each and every one of them.
Each one had a story to tell that made me feel
less alone in my struggles and more accepted as
well as understood.

Here's my story:
I am a single mother of 2 beautiful children. Aged
10 and 6. They're a culmination of both
unmeasurable love and frustration but I wouldn't
have it any other way. I am an Islamic educator by
profession. I run my own institute In Houghton,
along with my elder sister, with roughly about 50
students. I have been teaching for the past 13 years
from a school front, to aalimah classes, ladies
classes and then maktab. I am passionate about
what I do. I would love to be more involved with
our youth as well as women using
Islamic education. I believe there is great inner
strength and contentment that arises from our
relationship with our Creator.
